All your photography essentials in one device

Driven by the desire to keep innovating and elevating the youth’s smartphone experience, vivo came up with a concept for a ring light to replace the usual flash and solve common photography issues such as overexposure and compromised night shots caused by bright, unfiltered camera flash. The Aura Portrait Algorithm is a vivo-exclusive innovation that softens the subject’s features and gives them a warm, luminous skin, yielding results comparable to professional portraits done in studios. 

Night portraits with the vivo V27e are more vivid and detailed, making the subject shine in the middle of the dark backdrop. The vivo V27e packs a hybrid EIS + OIS Dual Ultra-Stabilization feature which guarantees effortlessly stable photographs and videos each time. The vivo V27e also has a 32MP HD selfie camera and 64MP OIS Ultra Sensing rear camera – all harmoniously creating a seamless, professional camera experience for you. 

Seize the content creator momentum and create your own vlogs with V27e’s vlog movie 3.0 feature which guides you throughout the entire vlogging process from pre production prep to shooting and editing. Making film-grade vlogs is likewise a breeze with the smartphone’s built-in film tone templates, frames and stickers.

Easily edit videos, insert text, or add filters and themes with on-screen tips and instructions even while recording, so you don’t end up with unusable footage and wasted time. With all these innovative specs paired with your creativity, nothing can stop you from being the content creator you’ve always wanted to be!

Top of the line or never mind

No, a smartphone is not just a device for sending and receiving messages, taking pictures and videos, and setting alarms and calendar schedules. It is a fashion statement as much as a digital tool for school, work and other creative pursuits. 

Inspired by Bauhaus design philosophy, the new vivo V27 series exudes minimalism and elegance but with emphasis on function. The compact camera layout further gives the phone an elegant yet simple vibe -- a refreshing take from the bigger, more extravagant camera arrangements in other phones.

Download all your school and work files for review with ease with the vivo V27e’s 256GB storage. Powered by vivo Extended RAM 3.0 technology with 8GB+ up to 8GB extended RAM, the vivo V27e delivers a smooth and seamless performance throughout the day.  Scrolling through your phone screen is also made even easier with its upgraded 120Hz refresh rate.

Alorica Inc. Earns Stevie® Award for Empowering Women

Alorica Inc., one of the largest and most trusted Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) in the industry, has marked March as its International Women’s Month as an extension of the official International Women’s Day (IWD) on March 8. This year, the celebration was elevated with the global CX provider receiving a Stevie® Award for Achievement in Developing and Promoting Women. The award underscores Alorica's dedication to fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment where women are empowered to lead and achieve their full potential. Last year alone, the company promoted 5,000 employees and more than half were women. 

Across its Philippine operations, Alorica's executive management team actively promotes diversity, equity and inclusion as evidenced by the number of their accomplished women leaders. Starting with Asia-Pacific (APAC) Regional President Mireille Magallona whose deep experience in the BPO sector and proven track record of exceptional leadership in the Philippines are a testament to the organization’s commitment to embracing diverse perspectives. Having a female leader in the highest position overseeing the entire region also serves as a source of inspiration for women looking to advance their careers.

"I am a woman, a mother, a leader and an Alorican,” shared Magallona. “All of these things make me proud of who I am and motivates me to do my best every day. It’s my great honor and pleasure to be leading a team of phenomenal men and women who contribute tremendously to our business growth and to the communities where we work and live. As Alorica leaders, we align around a shared value system in which we work together with respect, determination and purpose.” Magallona added.

Alorica’s worldwide workforce of 100,000 is made up of 60% women with a similar breakdown in APAC. Also, several corporate functions are run by female leaders from the Philippines; in addition to Magallona, who is a part of the Alorica Executive Leadership Team, Associate General Counsel Mikee Ong and Regional Vice President of Human Resources Jamea Garcia serve in global roles. Additionally, longtime Alorican Ma Kristine (Tintin) Bucayan, Sr. Director of Customer Experience, helps oversee operations in the country, having moved up the ranks during her 19-year tenure.

Successful fireside chat to close the month-long IWD celebration in PH

One of the ways in which Alorica creates an inclusive culture and supports its employees’ learning and development is through its Women’s Initiative. The company continues to proactively implement measures to support the professional advancement of women, including mentorship opportunities and guidance for career growth. As part of the global program, Alorica hosts a speakers' series featuring influential female leaders from within and outside the organization to provide career guidance, share insights, and motivate employees to take charge of their career paths. The latest installment of this popular fireside chat featured Divisional Vice President of Customer Experience Sarah Machan-De Silva from the Philippines as well as Sr. Vice President of Client Solutions Jadah Hawkins from the U.S. as they touched on the barriers, setbacks, perceptions for women in leadership roles and what it means to become a woman in the power seat. The final Women’s Initiative event to close out the month will take place on March 31 with special guest Amelia Hardy, Best Buy’s Chief Inclusion & Diversity Officer, speaking to hundreds of Alorica employees. These efforts culminated into a month-long extended celebration of International Women's Day (IWD) throughout the organization. 

“At Alorica, we continuously strive to be the kind of company where individuals—regardless of their gender, age or background—feel welcomed, challenged and supported. It’s the kind of culture where employees can dream big, own their future and know there’s a seat at the table for them. Let’s continue to shatter that status quo together,” Magallona stated.

The organization’s deep appreciation for its human assets was affirmed when Golden Haven Chairman and real estate tycoon, Manny Villar, graced the event to meet the hardworking and dynamic Golden Haven agents and pay tribute to them. Over dinner and drinks, the Chairman shared stories and anecdotes with the honorees, getting to know them better and fostering a sense of camaraderie among the attendees.
